UC Divest from Blackstone!
The CIO Office's $4.5 billion investment in Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust (BREIT) makes the University's position as a major driver of the housing affordability crisis.
Take action to demand that UC Regents:
Divest $7 Billion from Blackstone
Get Blackstone to agree to rent control and just cause evictions
Invest $7 Billion dollars in affordable housing for students workers and communities
Use UC’s surplus lands and vacant property for affordable housing
Give AFSCME 3299 the fair contract that they deserve!
We are asking you to join us in continuing to call on UC to divest from all of its Blackstone holdings, currently valued at over $7 billion.
